Comprehensive Review of S olid W aste Collection and Disposal Options v2.1 B -3 10/22/12 To make the eligibility criteria for the waiver process more consistent, we recommend that specific standards be established for approving future requests. We believe the eligibility criteria for multi-family properties requesting residential roll-cart service should include: 1. All units have frontage on a public street that is constructed to Town standards; and, 2. All units have driveways or other clearly defined curbside locations where roll-carts can be serviced along the public street from behind the curb without blocking sidewalks for each individual unit. If these eligibility criteria are accepted, we believe that two existing multi-family properties that have previously requested roll-cart service may now be granted waivers. These properties are Vineyard Square with 191 units and Franklin Grove with 41 units, for a total of 232 units. M ULTI -F AMILY C OLLECTION S ERVICES F INANCIAL E VALUATION Residential Roll -Cart Collection and Disposal Cost As presented in Section 7 of this Study, SCS calculated the Town’s per household cost for residential waste collection and disposal on a per roll-cart basis. Based on the Town budget, SCS allocated costs between residential and commercial collection services as consistently established throughout this Study. Also as described in this Study, the Town represents 11,500 households as reported by census data and other public demographic reports. The unit cost for residential roll-cart collection service which includes all residential solid waste services (e.g., yard waste collection, bulky item collection, weekly trash collection, etc.), assuming one (1) 64- gallon roll-cart per household with collections twice per week for MSW and yard waste is estimated $16.60 per month per household: Allocated Residential Collection Cost/ # of Households Householdperyear.$households, tcoscollectionlresidentiaannualallocated,,$1511950011 2382902       Householdpermonth.$months householdpertcosannual.$601612 15119       tonper.$yearpertons, tcoscollectionlresidentiaannualallocated,,$902347509 2382902    Commercial Bulk Container Collection and Disposal Cost As described in Appendix A of this Study, SCS allocated the Town’s solid waste collection and disposal costs into Residential and Commercial programs based on staffing and equipment assignments.
